Re: [julia-users] ANN CustomREPLComepletions - custom string completions in function arguments (HDF5, NetCDF...)

Yes it does, it uses type inference to determine the return type of a function call. This way the determination of the argument type is effect free. You could maybe hook your package into the logic in REPLCompletion.jl in base.

Yes I was also thinking about if evaluating all other arguments is a good idea. My first thought was about performance and the conclusion was that when one does work interactively on the REPL, one wants to do this evaluation anyway. There are, of course issues with mutating functions like when

Re: [julia-users] ANN CustomREPLComepletions - custom string completions in function arguments (HDF5, NetCDF...)

The issue here is that you have to evaluate the expression to the left of the cursor, which could entail running arbitrary code. Which may be fine, but we haven't taken that step yet. On Thu, Feb 18, 2016 at 9:02 AM, Tom Breloff wrote: > Sounds very useful! I have a scenario

I forgot to mention, this is currently targeted at julia 0.5, it needs the new function types. It should work for nightlies. On Thursday, February 18, 2016 at 3:23:41 PM UTC+1, Mauro wrote: > > > Sounds very useful! I have a scenario that probably fits... When using > > PyCall I always find

Sounds very useful! I have a scenario that probably fits... When using PyCall I always find myself pressing tab to see what methods are defined on a python object: "obj[:get_something]()["... Crap... Gotta look at the docs... It would be awesome if you gave a quick how-to for something like

I want to share an (unregistered) package called CustomREPLComepletions https://github.com/meggart/CustomREPLCompletions.jl. It hooks into the REPL completion system and lets you add individual completions depending on the function surrounding the current cursor. For example, if after the
